Sick: a typical day
Anita was up all night throwing up. It was like chinese water torture, you would nod off then she would be throwing up again. Sick also makes you feel very nauseous also. She gets like this every so often and once it comes on it seems to last for around 12 hours. I was only telling the surgeon the other day that she hadn’t had it this year. It’s something to do with motion/co-ordination thing in her head. As sods law would have it she was due first for a blood test then later today she was going to see the eye specialist about her squint. These appointments (like everything) are so important for Anita. We now have to re-arrange it which means I will have to take another day off work along with all the other numerous hospital appointments. The nurse came out couldn’t get blood from her vein which means that will also be re-arranged. Sometimes it’s all these little things that make you go argh! argh! argh!.
I think the sickness could have been caused by looking up close to a giant screen in the cinema. If you are in a wheelchair you have to sit near the front close to the screen. We went to see Sideways which I enjoyed as it’s very much my kind of film. It feels as if we are being penalised for actually enjoying ourselves!
